Why AppAcademy coding Bootcamp sucked Student Perspective and my experience attending AppAcademy Online Bootcamp in 2020
I attended AppAcademy online coding Bootcamp and even if I really want to be positive about it the sad thing is that even after a year after starting this coding Bootcamp I feel disappointed and frustrated with the experience got at AppAcademy coding Bootcamp 2020. This video includes real examples of my experience attending an online coding Bootcamp. I hope that sharing this information will bring more clarity and visibility of what might happen at a coding Bootcamp so if you consider attending a coding boot camp in 2021 you are better equipped with what kind of questions to ask when researching bootcamps and know on what you are going to use your hard-earned money as well as your precious time and energy.

Hope you find it useful!!!
